Matt Nagy - Offensive Coordinator KC Chiefs
Philadelphia Eagles (2008–2009)
Coaching intern
Philadelphia Eagles (2010)
Coaches' assistant
Philadelphia Eagles (2011−2012)
Offensive quality control coach
Kansas City Chiefs (2013–2015)
Quarterbacks coach
Kansas City Chiefs (2016–present)
Offensive coordinator
Young up and coming OC at 39 years of age. He seems to be Andy Reid’s protege. He was on Reid’s staff since 2008 back in Philadelphia. Reid took him with to KC as his QB coach. He promoted him to offensive coordinator in 2016. The offense they run is extremely innovative and unpredictable, so basically the opposite of what the Bears are running at the moment. Not only that, the offense they run is extremely adaptable based on skill set. Alex Smith and Pat Mahomes are complete opposites, yet Reid had no problem drafting him.
Terez was on there this week and, in the context of talking about how or why Alex Smith and the offense has improved, he mentioned a name we probably haven’t mentioned enough: Chiefs OC Matt Nagy.
“Matt Nagy has been getting a lot of credit from men in that locker room about the tweaks that he’s made to that offense and the play calling,” Terez said. “Nagy taking a more prominent role in the play calling very well might have something to do with the increased efficiency.”
That’s interesting that some players think that and it’s not Andy Reid trying to sell us on one of his assistants (like Doug Pederson calling plays in the second half of the 2015 season).

When asked about the Chiefs' creativity on offense, his grin threatened to break his face.
"It's a dream, man. They're making the Madden guys' jobs hard," West said, referring to programmers and designers at EA Sports who are responsible for the signature NFL video game.
"I don't know how they're going to get all of this stuff in the game next year," West said.
If they're trying to replicate the Chiefs' playbook, it might push the limits of technology.
Whether it's a jet sweep run through any number of players, on any position on the field, to the tunnel screens that have allowed tight end Travis Kelce to rack up the yardage, one thing is clear: The game plans that coach Andy Reid and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy have put together this season have pushed the boundaries of what seems possible in a league known for its copycat tendencies.
"Every week, defenses are trying to do something to take away what you're trying to do. That's always been the case," quarterback Alex Smith said. "I think the goal is to be really balanced. You want a lot of guys that can produce, you want to do it in a lot of different ways, so you're not one-dimensional - so they can't shut you down that easily."
One dimensional? Heck, the Chiefs are pushing the boundaries of three-dimensional.
